Well my heated leather seats are pressure sensitive so they don't warm up with the car!I had to sit bored at the car dealership waiting for the loan paperwork to get faxed. The worst part was that my Apple Watch had just gotten replaced and it wasn't updated to the latest software. So I didn't have half the colors available on my watch face. And the battery on my iPhone was almost dead. All that and our new car doesn't even have heated leather seats!
Hehe... I'll admit that I use a slight variation on this excuse... "I can't reach".When my DH empties the dishwasher he always leaves a few things on the counter that he "doesn't know where they go." He really just doesn't want to put them away.
I don't feel guilty. I come from somewhat of a poor environment and have worked hard to pull myself up. I also try really hard to be thankful in all circumstances and remember where I came from. I try and give back where and when I can because I remember what it was like to not have a warm comfortable home and so much food. I also didn't step into a car dealership until I was well into adulthood. No guilt here, just gratitude and a desire to give back and pay forward as I'm able.Do any of you feel guilty for your good fortune? Even if you worked for it and was born in N. America it's different than being born say in a S. American slum. Do you ever feel that the right thing to do would be to sell your house and move to a very small house, down size your cars, sell off your jewelry and so forth and donate it to a third world charity? Sell your vacation house? Or maybe donate all your vacation funds and take no more vacations? If not should one feel guilty for having "first world" problems?
I can't decorate my Christmas trees because my 9 month old kitten is a terror, and wants to climb it. This year may just be a tree, lights, and a handful of wood/metal/decoupage ornaments I think are indestructible enough to survive.
We're going to Disneyland Friday-Monday. Driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to cram: Fantasmic, Christmas Parade, Paint the Night, Disneyland Forever fireworks, Candlelight, World of of Color Holiday, the Viva Navidad street parade in 3 nights, and still have time to ride rides and not be camped out somewhere for hours. We're going specifically to see the things that will be closing for Star Wars, so I can't cut out Fantasmic. But I don't want to miss any of the holiday stuff either. I've seen Paint the Night and the new fireworks, but my husband has not.
This. Exactly this.I don't feel guilty. I come from somewhat of a poor environment and have worked hard to pull myself up. I also try really hard to be thankful in all circumstances and remember where I came from. I try and give back where and when I can because I remember what it was like to not have a warm comfortable home and so much food.

My daughter brought a "crudites" (sorry French folk, no accent grave here!) to Thanksgiving dinner and we didn't know what it was! It scared most of us until she opened the lid and revealed the contents!
My husband keeps leaving the butter uncovered on the counter, and we occasionally have gnats/fruit flies flying around.....and we have cats (that comes with litter boxes).
I don't like cat poop with my butter.
I try not to be a nag, (I have told him about it several times). I end up opening a new stick and keeping it in the fridge (even though I don't like hard butter on my bread).
Marital sacrifices
Apple Pay on my Apple Watch take too long when I'm buying lunch at Subway. Subway's credit card readers are fast for swiping a regular credit card, but are sluggish with Apple Pay on the Iphone, and even more sluggish on the watch.
Apple Pay works pretty much at the same speed across devices at Whole Foods.
